Seven o'clock in the evening.

North City TRB Hong Restaurant.

In the private room, everyone has already taken their seats.

This time, everyone who participated in the surgery in the morning was invited by Liu Ziang, since it's a treat, it's not good to favor some over others.

Xu Man Ni is still on duty, so she couldn't come, and Gao Jun is too busy, so he didn't come either.

Zhao Heng and Liu Ziang are seated at the head of the table, while the others, two neurology resident doctors, are sitting together, as are Sun Li and Tian Zhen.

The dishes haven't been served yet, and everyone in the private room is chatting among themselves.

"Senior, you went all out..."

Zhao Heng said to Liu Ziang sitting beside him.

Just after entering the restaurant, he took out his phone to check and realized that the average cost per person at this restaurant was 924 yuan.

Which means, for the six people present, this meal would cost Liu Ziang at least around six thousand yuan.

This is indeed quite extravagant.

But as the deputy director of neurosurgery at Eastern Hospital, and a master surgeon, Liu Ziang's annual salary is at least over two million, so this meal is nothing to him.

"I keep my word, don't I?"

Liu Ziang smiled and said.

Actually, a meal costing six thousand is just mid-range for high-end dining, it's not that Liu Ziang can't afford more expensive, but there's no need.

After all, it's just a meal, the average of over nine hundred per person is already very good.

If more, then it's just wasting money.

"When will I be as lavish as you..."

Seeing Liu Ziang not even blink at spending six thousand on a meal, Zhao Heng couldn't help but tease.

He now earns about three to four thousand a month at best, still quite far from Liu Ziang's income level.

"You're just starting, why rush."

Hearing Zhao Heng's tease, Liu Ziang smiled and said.

Opposite Zhao Heng and Liu Ziang, Sun Li and Tian Zhen were also chatting.

"My mom has a friend whose son just returned from abroad, works in finance, interested in meeting?"

Sun Li said to Tian Zhen.

"Blind date? No thanks."

Tian Zhen shook her head firmly at the suggestion.

She certainly dared not meet a finance guy.

"I knew it..."

Seeing Tian Zhen refuse immediately, Sun Li looked unsurprised.

"I can work on my own and earn my living, why put myself in a difficult position."

Tian Zhen said.

Among the trio, Xu Man Ni, Tian Zhen, and Sun Li, though their personalities are different, their views are quite similar, all three were fervently opposed to love and marriage.

It's just that now Xu Man Ni is taken, leaving Tian Zhen and Sun Li slightly out of place.

"Look at Man Ni, she was great, wasn't she? Didn't she say before not to fall in love or marry, now she found Zhao Heng and rapidly transformed into a good wife and mother."

Sun Li slightly shook her head, saying to Tian Zhen.

"Then find me someone as good as Zhao Heng, and I'll meet."

Tian Zhen blurted out.

"Uh..."

Sun Li was taken aback by Tian Zhen's response, not answering for a moment.

It was then she realized, when she spoke to Tian Zhen, Tian Zhen kept glancing subtly in one direction.

As everyone in the private room was chatting, the dishes arrived, and once all were served, Liu Ziang stood up, holding a wine glass, saying: "Today, everyone worked hard, so this is a little reward from me. If there's anything you want to eat, feel free to order, no need to be polite."

As Liu Ziang said this, everyone stood and raised their glasses, the atmosphere instantly turned very amicable.

While eating and drinking, Liu Ziang noticed Tian Zhen's gaze constantly looking at Zhao Heng, so he nudged Zhao Heng, playfully saying: "If only I had your charm."

"Where's that coming from?"

Being told this by Liu Ziang, Zhao Heng felt it was odd, wondering what prompted it.

"The female journalist who interviewed you the other day, she was really pretty, and look, you have a gorgeous girlfriend at the hospital, a caring nurse at work, and who knows how many more I don't know about."

Perhaps having drunk a bit more, Liu Ziang seemed quite open, jokingly said.

"You watched that interview?"

Zhao Heng was somewhat surprised, isn't Liu Ziang quite bored to watch such formal news interviews.

"Of course, you were representing the hospital on screen, of course, I had to watch."

Liu Ziang replied.

"Alright, as long as you're happy. But you're making me sound like quite the playboy..."

Zhao Heng wryly waved his hand and said.

"You certainly have the conditions to be a playboy, just depends if you want to."

Liu Ziang added.

"With so much work I have, wish I could use time for sleep and restroom breaks to work more, you think I have the mind for such playboy matters?"

Zhao Heng said somewhat helplessly.

There's a saying, though it's ugly, Zhao Heng grudgingly agreed.

That is, in this world, there's only one disease—poverty.

During equipment setup, Zhao Heng had this disease, and suffered greatly.

Now he has the opportunity, he certainly wants to work hard, thoroughly rid of 'poverty disease.'

"Not now, maybe in the future. Even delicacies can be tiresome if eaten too often."

Liu Ziang spoke as if with plenty of experience.

"I won't discuss such things with someone who doesn't even have a girlfriend..."

Zhao Heng teased.

"Ah, is it that I don't have one? I maintain high standards and strict requirements..."

Liu Ziang was choked by Zhao Heng's words.

This meal was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone, near the end Zhao Heng ordered a few more dishes to go.

"Are you trying to eat me poor?"

Seeing Zhao Heng order dishes to go, Liu Ziang simply smiled, with his relationship with Zhao Heng, it was more than a meal, even a daily visit, as long as time permitted, Liu Ziang would be willing.

"Hard to come by your treat, of course, I'll eat you poor."

"Won't rush home after, right? Drop me by the hospital."

Zhao Heng joked and then said.

"Taking midnight snacks to your girlfriend? You're quite the qualified boyfriend."

Liu Ziang smiled and said.

"Been a bit distracted lately, need to make up for it."

Zhao Heng said.

Lately, he's indeed been focused on neural stem cell treatment, not paying much attention to Xu Man Ni.

Even though work is like that, care is still necessary.

"Sure, I've called a driver."

Liu Ziang nodded, having drunk, he clearly shouldn't drive.

The two resident doctors left early, Sun Li and Tian Zhen haven't left, Tian Zhen was helping Zhao Heng pack the night snack to send to Xu Man Ni.

After a while, the driver arrived, Zhao Heng carried the snack and left with Liu Ziang.

Sun Li then said to Tian Zhen: "It's too late now, don't go home, I've called a driver too, you can come over to my place."

"Okay."

Tian Zhen nodded, looking at Zhao Heng carrying a pile of snacks, going to deliver to Xu Man Ni at night, her heart suddenly felt chaotic.

"Let's go, I think you should meet the finance guy I mentioned, they're not all like you imagine."

Seeing Tian Zhen like this, Sun Li couldn't help but sigh, patting Tian Zhen's shoulder and said.
